Great character development amid daily drama
Zadie Smith does a great job of encapsulating north London life by explaining the lives of four residents. While the drama itself is nondescript and a bit mundane, the writing is superb, and she does a great job of bringing the characters together.

Not Nineteen Forever by The Courteeners

Track

"When this song comes on, for me and my friends from school, this is our anthem. I mean, I was literally 19 at the 2012 Olympics in London and this was the first song I played when I stepped onto the track. It really gets me up for it."

"This book is a series of letters that a young Nina wrote to her sister back home after she became the live-in babysitter for an astonishingly interesting London family in the 1980s. She’s hilarious about the goings on. And Alan Bennett was their friend and neighbor. ‘Nuff said."

"This classic adaptation of John Buchan’s book is one of Hitchcock’s last British features and is filled with brilliant and funny set pieces. Dapper Robert Donat and plucky blonde Madeleine Carroll on the run from the good guys and the bad guys, moving from London to the Scottish highlands."
